2. However, this does
not mean that Christians have a license to sin without the expectation of
punishment (Rom. 6:1-2, 23).

3. Christians are
called to diligent watchfulness to avoid falling away from God (Heb.
3:12-13).

literally means “a standing away,” hence the concept of “falling away.” It is
“an abandoning of what one believed in, as a faith, etc.” (Webster).

religious people have been persuaded that it is impossible for Christians to
fall away & be lost, we must be very aware of what the Bible actually teaches.
Bible truth refutes this false doctrine of men.
